Looking Back 40 years -- Woodstock Summer of '69

Woodstock! The event that defines our generation. I was well over 10,000 miles away on a small island named Ie Shima, just off the northwest coast of Okinawa. I've met several friends who attended the festival. Personally, I loved everything that I have seen from the festival. But to think, some 40 years later, there are still some of those people going strong in their music such as Carlos Santan. And then there are those who's lives were cut short because of their life style, people like Janis Joplin and "The Man" Jimi Hendrix. I still get out the now DVD of the original movie and play it, both discs. There have been some nice documentaries of late about Woodstock. Now days, jsut the mention of Woodstock takes many of us back to those days.
